CHICAGO — The Chicago-Green Bay rivalry intensified for one couple after a Chicago-area Bears
fan won a bet with his Packers fan wife at a bar in Wisconsin, police said.

John M. Grant, 42, of the suburb of Tinley Park, Ill., and his wife watched the Bears beat the
Packers on Monday night at Sidelines Tap in Mayville, Wis., according to police.

Grant told police he and his wife made a bet that he could use a Taser on her if the Bears
won.

The two were in the alley smoking cigarettes at one point when Grant used the Taser “two times
on her buttocks,” according to a criminal complaint filed in Dodge County, Wis.

Grant’s wife then called police.

“Hell yeah it hurt,” she said, according to police.

Grant was charged with felony possession of an electronic weapon.

“It takes not only the Packer and Bear rivalry to a new level, it takes the spousal rivalry (to
a new level),” said Mayville Police Chief Christopher MacNeill. “There are couples where the wife
is a fan of one team and the husband’s a fan of another team, but this raises the bar a little bit
and goes to the extreme.”

Grant’s wife told police she had not given consent for anyone to use a Taser, but police checked
a video on her cellphone and saw the Taser used on her in the alley, where she is seen “laughing
and it seemed apparent that Ms. Grant had consented,” the arresting officer wrote in the
complaint.

“I think a lot of people were in disbelief this actually took place,” MacNeill said.
